When A Good Show Has A Bad Ending

Reply in thread

GoT comes to my mind with this. The whole show are these giant buildup to the war in the north, the dragons, Westeros power grabs, Jamie's character arc, children of the forest, and other cool concepts that ended in a pathetic wet fart of a final season. It makes watching the show feel like a waste. when you know at the end its just a wet fart.

eco-vengeance iconoclast

As a person who lived in AZ and has been WAY closer to groups of javelina than I would like to be.

  1. They are huge and not to be fucked with.
  2. They will tear up and any all vegetation they can.
  3. If one wanted to, it could fuck up your car.
  4. Go Pig Queen go!

if you are looking for whiskey: Westward, Dickel, Clemens, 6666, Tincup, Heavens door, Westland, Balcones or Bear fight are good options.

If its Bourbon: Highwest, Redwood empire, smoke wagon, Penelope, Remus, Pursuit, Old forester, Michters, Russell's, Dancing panda, Lasso, Hirsch,Four roses, Basil Hayden are all good to decent options

For Scotch: monkey shoulder, Glenfiddich, Drambuie, Aberlour, Brenne, Dewars, Glenlivet and Singleton are good options

for Irish whiskey: Jameson, Writters tears, Red Breast, Slãint, and Whistler are decent picks.

For Japanese whisky: Toki (white or black) kikori and Nikka and Sato Hiki are good Japanese picks

For Canadian Whisky: Pendleton, crown, black velvet, Pike Creek and forty creek are decent options.

I tried going with options I have not seen in the comments and I tried to make sure very few was MGP or other white label distilleries. Also I was aiming in the 30ish to 60ish USD range.

'It's like being in Greece': The US neighbourhood where cars are banned

As someone who just moved out of the Mesa, Arizona area. About 10 miles from here. And lived in AZ for around 25 years. A few points, It is hotter than Satan's asshole after ghost pepper chilli night. Your cloths that you are wearing will be physically hot against your skin during summer, in about 5-10 minutes. The gap / crack-fill in the road becomes soft and malleable in summer. Sure there are things to do, but for the next 4-6 hours drive, you are going to the same place that many people are going to and you will be lucky to find anywhere not crowded or secluded. The rent a bike and scooter prices are not always great. It gets hot, like 85 Fahrenheit or more by April and it doesn't begin to cool off until October - November. 110 Fahrenheit or more is insanely hot. The Urban Sprawl is huge, and combined with the intense heat, clouds go around most of the Sprawl. And unless you have a nice paying job and your shit together, you can't afford to live here. But the light rail and the self driving cars are kinda cool.

edit: Holy air pollution batman.
